when the parcel arrived from Amazon with the 2nd & 3rd books, i found myself almost wishing i didn't have to open it - i so dearly wanted to read them and knew it meant i would finish them and the magic of the first time you hear a story would be over...
waht can i say? i smiled, i laughed, i wept, i sighed, i DEVOURED Kushiel's Chosen and there are very very few books that make me want to turn to the first page immediately and start reading them again. and then there was one more book left...Kushiel's Avatar
this book was vast and soem might be tempted to lose interest in the first few opening chapters - please continue to read and you'll find a tale that i think will become a classic as more and more readers discover Jacqueline Carey and marvel at her craft. i read the last page half an hour ago and i'm still blinking away the tears, still smiling in the way that makes my Beloved Master Phil ask me if i'm alright lol...and i feel VERY alright, glowing with the bittersweet knowledge that these three books - Kushiel's Dart, Kushiel's Chosen & Kushiel's Avatar - have joined that tiny collection in my library of stories that are truly special
i think you will find soemthing in her books whether Y/you are male or female, young or old, Dominant or submissive, Master or slave, BDSM or Vanilla...and i respectfully defy A/any reader not to feel at least a tear forming as you read - to do otherwise would be inhuman.
thank You, Jacqueline Carey, for sharing Phèdre nó Delaunay with me - i will cherish her in my heart
with love & respect
